An outbreak of haemorrhagic colitis due to Escherichia coli 0157 and associated with a restaurant in Lothian, occurred in September 1990. There were 16 symptomatic cases, four of whom (all children)...

Genome Sequence-Based Fluorescent Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism of Campylobacter jejuni, Its Relationship to Serotyping, and Its Implications for Epidemiological Analysis

Desai, Meeta, Logan, Julie M. J., Frost, Jennifer A., Stanley, John

The published genome sequence of Campylobacter jejuni strain NCTC 11168 was used to model an accurate and highly reproducible fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (FAFLP) analysis....

Comparison of Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis and Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism Techniques for Investigating Outbreaks of Enteritis Due to Campylobacters

Champion, Olivia L., Best, Emma L., Frost, Jennifer A.

Campylobacters are the most commonly reported cause of acute bacterial enteritis in the United Kingdom and United States, with poultry, milk, and water implicated as sources or vehicles of infection....

Hopkins, Katie L., Desai, Meeta, Frost, Jennifer A., Stanley, John, Logan, Julie M. J.

Fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (FAFLP) analysis was applied to 276 Campylobacter jejuni strains and 87 Campylobacter coli strains isolated from humans, pigs, cattle, poultry, and...

Prevalence and Subtypes of Ciprofloxacin-Resistant Campylobacter spp. in Commercial Poultry Flocks before, during, and after Treatment with Fluoroquinolones

Humphrey, Tom J., Jørgensen, Frieda, Frost, Jennifer A., Wadda, Haddy, Domingue, Gil, Elviss, Nicola C., ...

Five commercial broiler chicken flocks were treated with either difloxacin or enrofloxacin for a clinically relevant infection, as instructed by a veterinarian. Campylobacters were isolated from...

Incidence and Mechanism of Ciprofloxacin Resistance in Campylobacter spp. Isolated from Commercial Poultry Flocks in the United Kingdom before, during, and after Fluoroquinolone Treatment

Griggs, Deborah J., Johnson, Maggie M., Frost, Jennifer A., Humphrey, Tom, Jørgensen, Frieda, Piddock, Laura J. V.
